Warm Butternut Squash Salad with Chanterelles and Brussel Sprouts and Bacon Vinaigrette
This is a dish of contrast. The bright green of the brussels is beautiful next to the orange squash and the butter-colored mushrooms. The acidity of the vinaigrette balances the sweetness of the butternut squash and the nuttiness of the brussel sprouts. The crispness of the bacon is balanced by the tenderness of the squash [...]

Thanksgiving Cornbread Stuffing Recipe with Apricots and Herbs
Aside from the turkey, the next most important piece of the Thanksgiving meal has to be stuffing, so I thought I would hurry up and do a post on my favorite kind of stuffing. I didn’t grow up eating cornbread stuffing. My mother always prepared stuffing with freshly baked, crusty French bread which she would [...]
Thanksgiving Cranberry Sauce Recipe with Orange
For most families, the thought of cranberry sauce evokes images in your mind of the gelatinous substance that slides out of the can, little ridges still intact, that you can slice with a knife and smother over your turkey.

Need a Thanksgiving Potato Idea? Here’s an Awesome Potato Casserole: Potato au Gratin Recipe
As our array of Thanksgiving recipes continues, I thought it was necessary to include a potato recipe.
